I stan anything featuring Reyez.

Hitting right at our nervous romantic feels. 

"Powerful Man" - Phoebe Bridgers

"Only You" - Theophilus London ft. Tame Impala

Put on your dancing shoes.  

"King of the Hill" - Thundercat ft. Flying Lotus and BADBADNOTGOOD

Chill vibes all around. 

"Shades of Blue" - Moxie Raia

A soulful track to attempt (and fail) to sing along to. 

"Nothing Compares 2 U" - Anna of the North

One of our fave Norwegian artists takes on Sinead O'Connor and Prince's masterpiece. 

"Joan of Arc" - Little Mix

"Oh, you're that feminist type?" Hell yeah. 

"Love Has All Been Done Before" - Jade Bird

Jade Bird wants more, and this killer song makes a pretty convincing argument for why she deserves it.
